Noam Chomsky weighs in on Bernie Sanders’ impact at last night’s Live from the NYPL

A truly wonderful thing about living in New York City: events like the New York Public Library’s Live from the NYPL series. Last night, they hosted Yanis Varoufakis, Greece’s finance minister amidst the country’s financial crisis, and Noam Chomsky. I don’t give

Yes, I’ve now seen Hall and Oates on the Daily Show. Thanks!

Everyone who knows I’m a Hall and Oates super-fan keeps asking if I saw them on the Daily Show the other night. Never fear, I just did. I loved it! (OK, I loved it in spite of it seeming like

Bullhorn at the polling place?

Bullhorn at the polling place?, originally uploaded by Kate O’. Doesn’t this violate at least the spirit of the “no soliciting votes within 100 feet” rule? ETA: I know the picture doesn’t get the details across, but the people in

It’s Briley for me, too

S-townMike has decided he wants Briley for the next mayor of Nashville. I’m so glad to read that. Anyone who’s seen our front yard (or pictures of our front yard) in recent weeks knows we’re a Briley household. But I
